Dodge Mopar '10 Challenger

Not that the Challenger didn't already sport retro looks, but the Dodge Mopar '10 Challenger ($39,000) takes it to the next level. Powered by a 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 with cold-air intake, the Mopar '10 also features a front strut brace, strut-tower brace, unique engine cover, Katzkin leather seating, Mopar shift handles, and a "Brilliant" Black paint job. Get in line now, because only 500 of these bad boys will be available.

Saw a red one with that hood on it the other day. Looked pretty good.

Can't very well be retro when the Challenger never had any such scoop can it?

Actually that is a modern interpretation of the hood scoop used on the '70 Challenger T/A. Not a bad looking car IMHO.

Later,

You're right! I had never seen one until I looked this one up. I even had a 1970 340 Challenger Lime Green with Black Bumble Bee Stripe on the rear.

Mr. 'Mo is correct on the scoop! Since they already have the hood they might as well produce a new Challenger T/A.

This one is ok, but I don't think it's that hot. If you already have an over-priced, under-performing, and low selling car...why stick an appearance package on it with a bigger price tag?

I would respond Nick, but it's a rhetorical question.
